Γ-Globulin Administration And Anti-Globulin Antibodies In Children, Marion Waller, Nellie Curry Jan 1965

Γ-Globulin Administration And Anti-Globulin Antibodies In Children, Marion Waller, Nellie Curry

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

We examined sera from 185 non-hospitalized children, 44 of whom had received repeated injections of γ-globulin for upper respiratory infections. There was no significant difference in the incidence of anti-globulin antibodies in the two groups. The presence of anti-globulin antibodies could not be correlated with the level of γ-globulin in the children's sera or with the age of the children.


What Is A Modern Physician?, George W. Pickering Jan 1965

What Is A Modern Physician?, George W. Pickering

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The first thing to remember is that the patient is not just a pair of tonsils, or perhaps, a skin, a prostate gland, or a pregnant uterus. This is a person. And it is essential that you should treat the patient as a person, as an individual who has feelings just like you and I have, who has a family background like you and I have, who has personal, domestic, and business problems, as most of us have.


The Modern Treatment Of Respiratory Failure, David V. Bates Jan 1965

The Modern Treatment Of Respiratory Failure, David V. Bates

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

I suppose it is appropriate that we come to respiratory failure at the end of a longish day. The definition of respiratory failure has an interesting history. Barcroft, 30 to 40 years ago, understood respiratory failure as a tissue phenomenon. He would have described cyanide poisoning to you as an example of respiratory failure. "Ventilatory failure" came into fashion but is not a very good term because total ventilation may be fine but gas exchange may be very poor. Europeans have invented various terms like "global insufficiency," which sounds very impressive in German, but always sounds to me more like …


Radiotherapy In The Management Of Oral Cancer, Ralph M. Scott Jan 1965

Radiotherapy In The Management Of Oral Cancer, Ralph M. Scott

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Radiotherapy and surgery, used singly or in combination, are the only curative approaches to the treatment of mouth cancer. Preoperative irradiation of advanced cancer is now being evaluated, and shows much promise. This may permit operation in previously inoperable cases, make less extensive operative procedures feasible in others, and possibly decrease the incidence of cancer spread during surgery. However, while surgery often can salvage radiation failures, the reverse is seldom true.


The Challenge Of Pulmonary Emphysema, David V. Bates Jan 1965

The Challenge Of Pulmonary Emphysema, David V. Bates

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

I feel very privileged to be invited to be your Stoneburner Lecturer for this year. When I came to consider what I really wanted to say and what might interest people in widely different areas of medicine, there really was little choice. I perhaps can claim to be able to talk about emphysema from a rather broad standpoint than some other physicians. Not because I suffer from it, which is sometimes a good reason for talking about a disease, but because I have been trained both in England and in America, and the outlook on this disease has differed in …


Ethics In New Medicine: Tissue Transplants, Francis D. Moore Jan 1965

Ethics In New Medicine: Tissue Transplants, Francis D. Moore

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Tissue transplantation, like other advances of the past, will react to the welfare of mankind if explored and exploited within the ethical bounds of science itself. Honesty and self-discipline must be held as values of the same importance as the very essence of all medical ethics: the welfare of the patient.


1965 Transactions, American Dental Association Jan 1965

ADA Transactions

This item is part of the Transactions of the ADA, a serial publication of the annual activities of the ADA House of Delegates (HOD)/Board of Trustees (BOT). It is from the Transactions section, one of three subtitles that make up the full publication. Generally, the ADA Transactions are published in multiple volumes throughout the year. Pages from the Annual Reports and the Transactions are numbered consecutively (e.g. Annual Reports volume ends pg. 500 and Transactions volume starts at pg. 501). NOTE: All three subtitles are collectively known as the Transactions of the ADA or, alternatively, the ADA Transactions. Transactions refers …


The Effect Of Γ-Guanidinobutyric Acid On The Clotting Time Of Normal Plasma And On The Euglobulin Lysis Time Of Fibrinolytically Active Plasma, Lyman M. Fisher, Phyllis S. Roberts, Warner E. Braxton Jan 1965

The Effect Of Γ-Guanidinobutyric Acid On The Clotting Time Of Normal Plasma And On The Euglobulin Lysis Time Of Fibrinolytically Active Plasma, Lyman M. Fisher, Phyllis S. Roberts, Warner E. Braxton

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

It has been established that ε-aminocaproic acid (EACA) inhibits the activation of human plasminogen (Ablondi et al., 1959; Alkjaersig, Fletcher, and Sherry, 1959). Because of this observation, this compound has been used extensively to inhibit the pathologically occurring fibrinolytic system in patients. Recently Roberts (1965) reported that another compound, γ-guanidinobutyric acid (GGBA), like EACA, inhibits the lysis of human blood clots. Furthermore, GGBA, unlike EACA, retards the formation of these clots. The present investigation was undertaken to determine whether GGBA inhibits clot formation in the one-stage prothrombin and in the partial thromboplastin time tests. In addition, the ability of GGBA …


Relative Incidence Of Pulmonary Emphysema Among Negroes And Whites Of Both Sexes, Edward S. Ray Jan 1965

Relative Incidence Of Pulmonary Emphysema Among Negroes And Whites Of Both Sexes, Edward S. Ray

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

There is an apparent correlation between cigarette smoking and the incidence of pulmonary emphysema. An increased incidence of emphysema is associated with increased cigarette consumption. The disease is relatively infrequent in those who have smoked less than a pack of cigarettes daily for less than 20 years. The low incidence of emphysema among females today may be explained by their low cigarette consumption. If this is true, this incidence should increase within the next decade because of cigarette consumption among today's younger females. The incidence of emphysema is lower among Negro males than would be expected from their smoking habits …

Recent Experience With Hemodialysis In Acute Renal Failure, Chronic Renal Disease With Reversible Features, And In Conjunction With Renal Homotransplants, John D. Bower Jan 1965

Recent Experience With Hemodialysis In Acute Renal Failure, Chronic Renal Disease With Reversible Features, And In Conjunction With Renal Homotransplants, John D. Bower

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Hemodialysis is a safe acceptable method of treatment for drug intoxication, and acute renal failure. It is also useful in the management of patients with chronic renal disease either on a periodic basis or, intermittantly, for acute exacerbations superimposed on chronic renal insufficiency. The great majority of dialysis at MCV has been done in conjunction with the ongoing renal homotransplantation program. Here dialysis has proven to be an innocuous procedure and has contributed significantly to the success of this program.

The Interdependence Of Pulmonary Structure And Function: A Synopsis, Norman C. Staub

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

It is a great pleasure to participate in the 1964 Stoneburner lectures and to present some recent views on the structure and function of the lung. In this report I will give a brief summary and show you three pictures to indicate some of the inter-relationships that exist.


Energy Requirements Of Breathing, W. T. Thompson Jr. Jan 1965

Energy Requirements Of Breathing, W. T. Thompson Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The mass movement of gases into and out of the lungs is accomplished by muscular work. This requires energy expenditure, caloric consumption, oxygen utilization, and carbon dioxide production. Inspiration is always an active process, enlarging the volume of the thorax, thereby increasing the negative pressure so that air flows into the lungs. Expiration is ordinarily passive but may require muscular work.

Pulmonary Surfactant And Its Relation To Disease, Sami I. Said Jan 1965

Pulmonary Surfactant And Its Relation To Disease, Sami I. Said

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Perhaps the most important advance in respiratory physiology during the past decade is the discovery of the role of surface phenomena. This has been in large measure the result of pioneer work by Pattle, in England, and Clements, in the United States. The following is a simplified and brief review of present knowledge of surface tension, as it relates to normal and abnormal pulmonary function.
